Increased Biodiesel Efficiency Alternatives for Production, Stabilization, Characterization and Use of Coproduct

This book advances the use of biodiesel—more environmentally friendly than traditional fossil fuels—by showing how it can be synthesized at a lower cost, with greater efficiency and as a more pure and stable product. It presents methods based on fluorescence spectroscopy, which are less time-consumi...
